Eli Drake also appeared tonight as his new persona LA Knight at NXT Takeover: Vengeance Day
Big day for WWE signings.
According to PW Insider former IMPACT world champion Eli Drake has signed a contract with the company and will be headed to NXT. Drake joins former Knockouts champion Taya Valkyrie, who also had her signing announced today for WWE’s yellow and black brand.
Following his departure from IMPACT in 2019 Drake joined the National Wrestling Alliance, and was featured on their weekly Youtube episodic Powerrr. He held the NWA tag titles with The Cowboy James Storm. He was quietly released from his deal with the promotion last year.
Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp has added that Drake is backstage for tonight’s NXT Takeover Vengeance pay per view, and was around for last week’s tapings as well.

I always enjoy Drake and he'll do well in NXT. Hopefully Taya can have a nice run as well.

I figured she was going there when I realized she was done with Impact at the end of the show a couple weeks back. She should tear it up if not held back. Drake will do good too if allowed.

I'm saw that Blake Christian was also signed. He was JUST on Impact but they must not have had him signed to a contract.
